Getting Started

Step 1 - Setting up a New Account

In order to create an account, visit TAS Login Page. (Or TAS Home Page)

• Login using a suitable git provider and select your organization you want to continue with.

• Tell us your specialization, team size.

  

• Select TAS Self Hosted and click on Proceed.

• You will find your LambdaTest Secret Key on this page which will be required in the next steps.

  

Step 2 - Creating a configuration file for self hosted setup

Before installation we need to create a file that will be used for configuring test-at-scale.

• Open any Terminal of your choice.
• Move to your desired directory or you can create a new directory and move to it using the following command.
• Download our sample configuration file using the given command.

mkdir ~/test-at-scale
cd ~/test-at-scale
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LambdaTest/test-at-scale/master/.sample.synapse.json -o .synapse.json

• Open the downloaded .synapse.json configuration file in any editor of your choice.
• You will need to add the following in this file:
  • 1- LambdaTest Secret Key, that you got at the end of Step 1.
  • 2- Git Token, that would be required to clone the repositories after Step 3. Generating GitHub, GitLab personal access token.
• This file will also be used to store certain other parameters such as Repository Secrets (Optional), Container Registry (Optional) etc that might be required in configuring test-at-scale on your local/self-hosted environment. You can learn more about the configuration options here.

Step 3 - Installation

Installation on Docker

Prerequisites

• Docker or Docker-Compose (Recommended)

Docker Compose

• Run the docker application.

  docker info --format "CPU: {{.NCPU}}, RAM: {{.MemTotal}}"

• Execute the above command to ensure that resources usable by Docker are atleast CPU: 2, RAM: 4294967296.

  NOTE: In order to run test-at-scale you require a minimum configuration of 2 CPU cores and 4 GBs of RAM.

• The .synapse.json configuration file made in Step 2 will be required before executing the next command.

• Download and run the docker compose file using the following command.

  curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LambdaTest/test-at-scale/master/docker-compose.yml -o docker-compose.yml
  docker-compose up -d

NOTE: This docker-compose file will pull the latest version of test-at-scale and install on your self hosted environment.

Installation without Docker Compose

To get up and running quickly, you can use the following instructions to setup Test at Scale on Self hosted environment without docker-compose.

• The .synapse.json configuration file made in Step 2 will be required before executing the next command.
• Execute the following command to run Test at Scale docker container

docker network create --internal test-at-scale
docker run —name synapse —-restart always \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    -v /tmp/synapse:/tmp/synapse \
    -v .synapse.json:/home/synapse/.synapse.json \
    -v /etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id \
    --network=test-at-scale \
    lambdatest/synapse:latest

WARNING: We strongly recommend to use docker-compose while Test at Scale on Self hosted environment.

Installation on Local Machine & Supported Cloud Platforms

• Local Machine - Setup using docker.
• Setup on Azure
• Setup on AWS
• Setup on GCP

• Once the installation is complete, go back to the TAS portal.
• Click the 'Test Connection' button to ensure test-at-scale self hosted environment is connected and ready.
• Hit Proceed to move forward to Step 4

Step 4 - Importing your repo

NOTE: Currently we support Mocha, Jest and Jasmine for testing Javascript codebases.

• Click the Import button for the JS repository you want to integrate with TAS.

• Once Imported successfully, click on Go to Project to proceed further.

• You will be asked to setup a post-merge here. We recommend to proceed ahead with default settings. (You can change these later.)

  

Step 5 - Configuring TAS yml

A .tas.yml file is a basic yaml configuration file that contains steps required for installing necessary dependencies and executing the tests present in your repository.

• In order to configure your imported repository, follow the steps given on the .tas.yml configuration page.

• You can also know more about .tas.yml configuration parameters here.

  

Language & Framework Support

Currently we support Mocha, Jest and Jasmine for testing Javascript codebases.
